Overview
Take a trip to Mulu National Park on your Malaysia Vacation
Located in Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo, near the border of Brunei, Mulu National Park is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to be considered for a visit on Malaysia vacations.
Mulu National Park is famous for its limestone karst formations, both above and below ground. It features enormous caves, vast cave networks, rock pinnacles, cliffs, and gorges, and is home to Mount Mulu, Sarawak’s second-highest mountain.
Sarawak Chamber is one of a few notable caves in Mulu National Park. It is 2,300 feet (700 m) long, 1,300 feet (396 m) wide and at least 230 feet (70 m) high. Clearwater Cave contains parts of one of the world's largest underground river systems and is believed to be the largest cave in the world by volume at 30,347,540m cubed.
In 1977-78, the National Geographical Society and the Sarawak government conducted a major expedition and survey of the area, involving 100 scientists. It has since initiated a series of expeditions now known as the Mulu Caves Project.
With 1500 flowering plants, 170 species of wild orchids, 67 species of animals, and offering accommodation onsite at its headquarters, Mulu National Park is a paradise for naturalists, adventurists, and anyone with an appreciation of our delicate ecosystem on a Malaysia tour.

I love Malaysia's delicious food. The country is also incredibly affordable, and visitors' easy access to public transit is a great way for them to experience local life.
If you want to get out of the capital city, Kuala Lumpur, then you should visit Malacca. The history of this ancient port city is well worth the trip.
I absolutely love travelling through Malaysia by train. It is incredibly scenic. I also love Kuala Lumpur's amazing skyline and Malacca's old Portuguese and Dutch buildings.

Specifically, our travel advisor, Maria, has helped us book phenomenal trips to Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, and most recently, Iceland.

I can’t say enough about Maria… she is personable, efficient, detail-oriented, and extremely knowledgeable about her specialty destinations. We have booked many trips with her, including Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Sicily, Iceland, and our most recent trip in Greece.
